Managing Mapathons to help WHO and CDC Eradicate Polio

I have been a GISCorps volunteer since 2009 and have used my own software to support GISCorps missions over the years. When Esri offered the GIS Service Pledge to GISCorps volunteers I was very excited since for the first time I would not have to pay for the software I used in volunteer work.

I am a member of the GISCorps Core Committee and have worked to support multiple projects over the past year. My main focus has been on Polio-focused mapathons. During the World Health Organization mapathon in August 2018 and the CDC mapathon in September, 2018 I was able to use my GSP software to prepare, manage, report and then use the structure data collected.
